Army of the Dead 2 Update Is Disappointing News for Zack Snyder Fans – Den of Geek

“Army of the Dead 2 is not on the way right this second,” Snyder confirmed to Den of Geek. “Shay [Hatten] and I, we’ve written treatments, we know exactly what we would do. It’s really a scheduling thing at this point.”

Snyder has in no way cooled on the idea of more stories in his zombie universe, though. The director is quick to point out that not only does he have a title for his next Dead picture but that there’s a direct connection between his zombie and Rebel Moon.

“We just have to press Netflix and be like, ‘Look, we need Army of the Dead 2.’ [It’s] Planet of the Dead, we know what it is. And you know, there’s a possible crossover between Rebel Moon and the Army of the Dead universes. They’re a shared universe.”

Snyder previously teased how exactly that crossover could work in the animated series Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas, which also currently trapped in limbo at Netflix.

“There’s actually a character from Rebel Moon in the Army of the Dead animated series that we never did,” Snyder previously revealed to Total Film in 2023. “At one point in the show, they go through a portal into another dimension, and there are characters in that other dimension that they come across. In Rebel Moon, they’re in this bar, and one of the aliens is one of the characters from the animatic.”

Later, in a separate interview with Total Film, Snyder suggested that work could restart on the animated series at some point: “We were working on – and are trying to get back up – our Army animated series, which was really cool. We recorded the whole thing, we recorded all the voices – Christian Slater, all these cool people. Super fun.”
